i knew a person on college who underwent srs and they said that when they were a gay man they had a strong group of female friends and alley guys who supported the change and even encouraged it well the women liked a gay friend but they didnt really want to take their tranny friend clubbing and the guys who encouraged it and said they would be a woman in their eyes suddenly got very weird when the prospect of romance came upalmost like they dont actually want to date a trans person
